I know how you feel. I think you have to focus more on your weak areas according to your performance profile on your next preparation. And take step 3 when you feel you are more than ready. Everything will work out just fine, just take it slow. God bless.

thats the best advice..........FOCUS on your WEAKNESSES.............once you are confident about even your weakest areas you will be able to do a really good job...........also..........DO NOT give up / lose hope........dats the WORST thing you can do.........its hard but do able.........just dont get too worked up n stay focussed........am sure you will do very well...........g'luk

Hey karusmle I don't have the words to cheer you up but I thought you may like the following phrase: "Between you and every goal that you wish to achieve, there is a series of obstacles, and the bigger the goal, the bigger the obstacles. Your decision to be, have and do something out of the ordinary entails facing difficulties and challenges that are out of the ordinary as well. Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else." ~ Brian Tracy

u have to pratice enuff questions and even redo nbme's for step 2 if u need more practice, bc make it like so routine that when u take ur exam, DO NOT MAKE BID DEAL OUT OF IT!! i was so whwere u were for my other steps, and now i just plan to study for this and just take it, i mean i did so much better when i wasn't pputting so much pressure on the exams!! i stopped telling everyone when my exams were so no one would call me and make me nervous like saying 'ok r u ready for the big day???' ten i would panic!! so just breathe, study u weak areas, do as many questions as u can and learn from ten, schedule u date and just walk in and take it, u will do great, but u must trian ur brain to focus on this only!! if u did step 1, i fell all other exams are do-able! best of luck friend!
